Crews are ready to help with both of these projects, but the GGI Project needs funds to purchase lumber and equipment. Contributions of all sizes are both welcome and appreciated AND are tax deductible! Please make checks payable to: AMNH, and send them to:<\/p>\n<p>Great Gull Island Project\/AMNH, Department of Ornithology, American Museum of Natural History, Central Park West and 79th Street, New York, NY 10024<\/p>\n<p>Kudos to Julianna Barrett (UCONN) and Suzanne Peyton (USFWS) who obtained grants to expand the Roseate Tern terraces and rebuild the observation blinds but more help is always needed.  Not to mention that the GGI&#8217;s best-ever dock that was completed in 2010 was totaled by Sandy.  The project is looking to FEMA for help but as above, any and all donations would be greatly appreciated.  <\/p>\n<p>You can learn more about Great Gull Island <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greatgullisland.org\/Main_Page.html\">here<\/a> and visit the GGI Blog <a href=\"http:\/\/greatgullisland.blogspot.com\/\">here<\/a>.  <\/p>\n<h3>Typos<\/h3>\n<p>On all blog posts, feel free to <a href=\"mailto:samandmayasgrandpa@att.net\">e-mail<\/a><\/center> or leave a comment regarding any typos, wrong words, misspellings, omissions, or grammatical errors.
